TypoSwype: An Imaging Approach to Detect Typo-Squatting. (arXiv:2209.00783v1 [cs.CR])

Typo-squatting domains are a common cyber-attack technique. It involves
utilising domain names, that exploit possible typographical errors of commonly
visited domains, to carry out malicious activities such as phishing, malware
installation, etc. Current approaches typically revolve around string
comparison algorithms like the Demaru-Levenschtein Distance (DLD) algorithm.
Such techniques do not take into account keyboard distance, which researchers
find to have a strong correlation with typical typographical errors and are
trying to take account of. In this paper, we present the …
